ANCIENT ASTROLOGY

SCIENCES OF ANTIQUITY

Sciences of Antiquity is a series designed to cover the subject matter

of what we call science. The volumes discuss how the ancients saw,

interpreted and handled the natural world, from the elements to the

most complex of living things. Their discussions on these matters

formed a resource for those who later worked on the same topics,

including scientists. The intention of this series is to show what it

was in the aims, expectations, problems and circumstances of the

ancient writers that formed the nature of what they wrote. A

consequent purpose is to provide historians with an understanding

of the materials out of which later writers, rather than passively

receiving and transmitting ancient ‘ideas’, constructed their own

world view.
